A New Cycloaddition Profile for ortho-Quinone Methides: Photoredox-Catalyzed [6+4] Cycloadditions for Synthesis of Benzo[b]cyclopenta[e]oxepines
Visible-light-induced [6+4] cycloaddition reactions of ortho-quinone methides have been developed. The reaction of ortho-quinone methides with pentafulvenes in the presence of a thioxanthylium photoredox catalyst afforded benzo[b]cyclopenta[e]oxepines. The present reaction...
